The Rolex Submariner Collection at Diamonds by Raymond Lee
Rolex Submariner Collection Overview
The luxury dive watch that people all over the world covet is the Rolex Submariner. The Submariner emerged in 1953 as a professional dive watch; however, it quickly morphed into a symbol of status and a sort of emblem of the style adventurous professionals seek. Here in our Diamonds by Raymond Lee showroom, the Submariner exists in many forms. Whether you are an experienced collector or new to the Rolex family and seeking your very first timepiece, our Submariner collection, featuring both the modern and the vintage, can only be described as gorgeous.
The Legacy of the Rolex Submariner Collection
The Submariner was the first watch with water resistance up to 100 meters (330 feet), which made it a new kind of benchmark for dive watches. Since its introduction, with the Submariner, “Rolex earned a nearly unbeatable position within the dive watch hierarchy.” Improvements in actual technology and refinement in physical design have made the Submariner part of the pop culture of the Rolex lineup. James Bond wears the watch in several of his movies, giving the watch a kind of legendary status that has never faded.
Key Features of the Rolex Submariner
The design and performance of the Rolex Submariner are first-rate. The watch strikes a lovely balance between form and function. A few elements that define its aesthetic include:
Unidirectional Rotating Bezel
Using a durable and scratch-resistant Cerachrom insert made of ceramic, the Submariner watch has a bezel that accurately measures dive durations. Benefits for diver safety come from the unidirectional movement, which ensures that any accidental adjustments made to the bezel can only result in an inaccurate reading that shortens the dive time, rather than extending it.
Water Resistance
The Submariner is defined by its underwater exploration capabilities, which use a strong Oyster case to maintain water resistance at depths up to 300 meters (1,000 feet). The Triplock winding crown provides a tight seal that stops water from entering the watch.
Perpetual Movement
The Submariner is powered by an in-house automatic movement made by Rolex. This is a self-winding movement certified as a Superlative Chronometer, which means it is more accurate than a standard chronometer.
Oyster Case and Bracelet
Constructed of 904L Oystersteel or 18k gold and Rolesor, the Submariner is made for remarkable durability and resistance to corrosion. On the Oyster bracelet, the Glidelock clasp allows for precise adjustments, which makes it easy to wear the watch over a wetsuit or in any other situation.
Luminous Display
The Submariner’s hour markers and hands use Chromalight luminescence, which emits a lasting blue glow, to provide visibility in underwater darkness.
Submariner Models at Diamonds by Raymond Lee
At Diamonds by Raymond Lee, our collection encompasses not only recent releases of the Rolex Submariner but also some striking vintage pieces. Here are several standout models you can see in our showroom:
Rolex Submariner No-Date (Ref. 124060)
The Submariner 124060 retains its base design and its base symmetry, with everything in the right place (just as a no-date Submariner should be). A black dial, a black Cerachrom bezel, and a 41mm stainless steel case—this is the classic dive watch, redefined but not redesigned.
Rolex Submariner Date (Ref. 126610LN)
The Submariner 126610LN stands out as one of the most coveted contemporary Submariner models. It isn’t hard to see why. The date function isn’t some nondescript window hiding at 3 o’clock, but rather an aperture that is magnified by a Cyclops lens directly above it. Indeed, the watch’s face is so legible that I’d venture to call it a triumph of dial design. Black is the color of both the dial and the bezel, and the case size has crept up to 41mm—still svelte by most standards but size-inclusive by Rolex’s.
Rolex Submariner “Hulk” (Ref. 116610LV)
The Rolex Hulk is favored by collectors for its green dial and bezel that create a daring and distinct look. The 40mm case design of this watch makes it both a practical tool for diving and a stylish, wearable accessory.
Rolex Submariner “Kermit” (Ref. 126610LV)
This fresh take on the classic Kermit has a black dial that partners with a green bezel to form an understated but vibrant modification of the classic Submariner design. A case size of 41mm and a Cerachrom bezel elevate the appeal of this watch in modern times.
Rolex Submariner Two-Tone (Ref. 126613LB & 126613LN)
The two-tone Submariner models made of Rolesor combine the luxury and the sportiness of a dive watch for those who appreciate both. The Submariner 126613LB features a blue sunburst dial, while the 126613LN is black.
Rolex Submariner Yellow Gold (Ref. 126618LB & 126618LN)
The 18k yellow gold Submariner models exemplify the utmost in opulence. The 126618LB mixes for a stunning blue dial and blue bezel combination, while the 126618LN shows all black in its appearance. These models are easy to characterize as prestigious and exclusive.
